    View of Mt. Iwakisan while eating freshly caught "Dakekimi corn"!

    The Takemimi is corn grown and harvested in the Take-area at the foot of Mount Iwaki. The Takemaki area is located on a plateau 400 to 500 meters above sea level. The temperature difference between day and night makes the corn overwhelmingly sweeter and juicier than other corn crops. It's a very sweet fruit. The sugar content is more than 18 degrees and it is surprisingly sweet enough to be eaten fresh. Every year in September, the Take-area and the Momosawa area have the Dakekimi corn stall stands in a row. Freshly harvested early in the morning that day, the stalks are outstanding! Raw or freshly-boiled corn, or grilled corn grilled and quickly coated with soy sauce This is the place to go. The moment you eat a piece of hot meat while looking out at the beautiful Mount Iwaki in front of you is a blissful moment. It is.
